geardaddy1 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Anyone know what is going on with Chaos? Their website has been down for over a week. We are in need of the upgrade to VRAY 1.52 because of Max Design. Is there anywhere else you can get this upgrade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billabong Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 I just emailed them to find out what the problem is. As soon as I hear something,I'll let you know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy L Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Thanks Brandon. Looks like I chose just the wrong time to have my only severe technical problems with Vray in 4 years... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billabong Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 No problem Tom, Sorry to hear about your problem.Is it anything that maybe we could try and help you with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy L Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 http://www.cgarchitect.com/vb/31938-dr-nodes-hang.html Above is the thread with my problem in it. I havnt been able to use DR (which I use all the time) for a week. Its killing me! Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billabong Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Tom, the only thing I can think of to do is contact Vray support directly, they seem to be pretty prompt with their responses. On a sidenote, SP2 is compatible with 2008, but they have a different install for each release of max as well as 32 and 64 bit, I'm not sure how long ago it was when you downloaded the .exe. But it is worth a shot. Good luck and I wish I could be of better help to you. -B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy L Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Thanks Brandon, Ive got everything correctly setup (64 etc) and I have contacted them directly. Because of the time difference they tend to just answer one question a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Mottle Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 We got a note from Chaos Group letting us (VisMasters) know that user account logins, forum logins and forum posts after July 7th are gone/destroyed. Just an FYI. Peter told me that they have a complete RAID system failure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
